Charakterystyki energetyczne odpadów komunalnych po procesach odzysku i recyklingu

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie możliwości takiego przetwarzania zmieszanych odpadów komunalnych, aby w jak największym stopniu zmniejszyć ich ilość i szkodliwość, a proces taki był technologicznie uzasadniony.

Waste management has become one of the main problems in the management of the environment in recent years. Many years of neglect and implementation of the provisions of the European Union have caused the need for urgent changes in this sector. Applied modifications of the law in relation to the existing provisions require continuous monitoring of technological parameters of waste, in terms of their suitability for different processes like recovery, recycling or disposal. The application of these processes may change the humidity and calorific value, and hence build up the difficulty in successive sequences waste treatment, and thus adaptation of the system to the binding legislation. The purpose of the article was to present the ways of waste treatment in such a way which would reduce as much as possible their amount and harmfulness, and that the technological process to be viable, and the waste management system in accordance with the binding law.
